"Mu——"

Valente, who was covered in black scale armor, let out an angry roar. His red eyes were swallowed up by the ferocious wave of memories, and images of dragons dying flashed in his mind like a slideshow.

In this thousand-year wave of hatred built by countless dead dragon souls, Valente can only barely hold on to the last few anchor points in his memory. In addition to the anchor points that he deliberately planted in his heart at the beginning, he is still engraved in

The deepest anchor in his heart is his father.

·······

*

Valente's father was an ordinary doctor in Sicily. Because of his handsome appearance and easy-going personality, his father met a beautiful young lady in the aristocratic circle of Fog City, who was his mother.

As a child he was not as strict as he was as an adult.

He was very naughty when he was a child, always pestering his father to play with him. If his father disagreed, he would climb a tree in the yard alone to protest.

In a loving family, in the hearts of young and immature children, their parents are the satellites surrounding them, and they are the only ones who shine. They always think that their parents are born for them, so they think that their harm can be replaced by

Come to parents' compromise.

Faced with this situation, some parents will compromise with their children, while other parents let their children learn the etiquette and order of society prematurely, while their own fathers adopt an alternative approach.

My father always wears a brown formal suit when he goes out to see a doctor. Faced with his unreasonable troubles, his father always retreats instead of advancing. He always says that he is old and frail in order to win his sympathy and pity. In the past, he was often criticized.

I was fooled by my father's realistic acting skills, and he always acted like a fox.

My father always lets me do small things, because for my father, he can try his best to become like us, but he cannot make us become like him, because life will not retreat, nor will it stay in the past. He only

You can leave a torch for inheritance, but you cannot ask your children to take over the torch.

Only when he got a little older did Valente gain insight into his father's cunning and his father's unusual education methods.

After he saw the stick education and wolf education given to their children by the parents of other classmates, he became even more aware of his father's differences.

When I was twelve years old, an epidemic suddenly broke out in Sicily. Countless patients with rickets on their faces were wailing in Sicily. As my father was the best doctor, naturally many patients came here. I watched through the window.

I always feel extremely frightened by the hateful faces of those patients.

Just like what is depicted in storybooks, in places where epidemics break out, few patients can survive, and the same is true for the patients treated by my father. Faced with a situation of inevitable defeat, I don't understand why my father persists.

On a dark night, looking at his father sitting under the gas lamp and smoking silently, he asked his question, why do you persist, why do you want to fight a battle that you know the outcome of?

"Valente, you have to understand that you know you will lose before you even start, but you still have to do it and stick to it no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do."

Click——

The fragments of memory broke, and the point he had deliberately anchored in his heart finally exploded.

**

Before coming to St. Lawrence Fortress.

"Abraham, are we friends?" I asked the blond young man riding a [Troodon] in front of me.

"Why do you suddenly ask such a disgusting question?"

Hugh Abraham stopped the [Troodon] under his feet, and then he showed an expression that made me feel extremely angry. To be honest, if there is a chance, I really want to find a time to beat him up.

Give the other party a meal.

"Why do you have a constipated expression on your face that you want to hit me but you are holding back?" The blond young man's mouth is always so sharp.

"If I have a chance, I will definitely beat you up." I replied to Abraham with a cold face.

"Before the war, be sure not to say some unlucky words. For example, after this fight, I will go home and marry a wife. After this fight, I will wash my hands of the enemy. People who say this are likely to die."

Abraham uttered strange words again. Facing his behavior, I shook my head with a headache.

In order not to be noticed by the other party, I can only give that thing to the other party in another way.

After approaching the St. Lawrence Fortress, I stretched out my fist. Abraham on the side was stunned for a moment. Then he seemed to remember something. He also stretched out his right fist to touch my fist. When the fists touched,

At that moment, I felt that thing entering the other person's body.

"We will save Youyang."

I couldn't help but smile and say what he said back then.

Click——

The memory image stayed on the fists that collided, and then shattered again.

***

Outside the Louvre.

Snow Child made a choice, and the conditions for [Mercy] were immediately unlocked. But what Abraham didn't know was that when [Mercy] was unlocked, a piece of text also appeared in front of me.

[Become the medium of the eternal evil dragon, or let a bigger [big sin] cut off the hatred of this thousand years. 】

"Abraham, what is your destiny for you?"

Looking at the back of the blond young man in front of me, I asked my question, and under the gaze of those golden eyes, I heard the answer.

"For me, fate is a sleeping slave."

I understand the answer.

A white card quietly appeared in my hand.

[Conditions for yellow card promotion: the burning spirituality of a close friend.]

·········

Loire River.

Damn!!!

Damn it, I should have noticed something was wrong with Valente a long time ago, why would I be negligent...

CNMD【Crimson King】!!!

When Xia Xiu asked the newly summoned light-body giant to throw him onto the viaduct, he saw Valente covered in black scales. At this time, the opponent had been eroded by the dragon soul composed of the thousand-year hatred of the dragon clan.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Xia Xiu saw Valente, he felt a burning sensation in his chest, and something appeared in his body.

Then Xia Xiu seemed to feel something, he stretched out his right hand, and a yellow card appeared in his hand.

The next moment, the yellow card began to be covered with white.

[Spirituality]: The true self of living beings, the essence of the soul, and the extraordinary chain of connection.

[Spirituality] has been unlocked.

"ah--"

On the viaduct, a figure wrapped in scale armor let out a shrill cry, and the burning golden flame covered his voice.

[Sacrifice]: Some things are above all else.

[Sacrifice] Unlocked.

[Must-win conditions activated]

【[Yellow Card]→[White Card]】

【Seven Deadly Sins Armed Forces】

Boom!!!

There was a thunder, followed by a crash, and heavy rain poured down from the sky like the sky had collapsed.

For the first time, the blond young man's face truly lost his smile. The raindrops hit him, moistening his clothes. The pattern representing the [Secret Key] on the back of his right hand began to rotate continuously, a special pattern.

Formed again, it was an "∞", and a burning pain radiated from the back of the hand.

At the other end of the viaduct, an armored man burning with golden flames brandished a black giant sword and charged at the blond young man. The torrential rain curtain was split in half.

"Through me into the city of endless pain,

Through me enter the pit of eternal misery,

Enter through me the people of eternal destruction.”

The blond young man who was bathed in the heavy rain chanted in a low voice. The heavy rain in the sky dripped dew from the wet fine hair on his forehead. He looked so embarrassed now.

【Seven Deadly Sins·Pride】

A golden ax as tall as the blond young man appeared in his hand.

Bang!!!!

Boom——

The sound of metal colliding was heard, followed by the sound of the bridge sinking.

Xia Xiu, who was holding the [Axe of Pride], easily caught the blow from Dragon Soul. The [Axe of Pride] gave him a powerful physical blessing. The [Axe of Pride] held in his hand weighed as much as a feather.
